My favorite song on the album …

Pretty Peggy-O is a traditional song which is covered by Bob Dylan that appears on his self-titled debut record. I’ll say right now that the version of this song which I was always familiar with was the version by The Grateful Dead, a version which I actually enjoy quite …

OneRepublic’s “Dreaming Out Loud” is a stellar debut album, in my humble opinion. OneRepublic is a rock band that recently became very popular on the radio, MTV, MySpace, and pretty much everywhere else in the music scene. It came out awhile ago but I just recently picked it up …

After spending years with the Misfits writing and recording some of the greatest punk to ever be pressed, Glenn Danzig formed his second band, Samhain. Their debut record, “Initium”, was released in 1984, and it showed that despite the Misfits officially disbanding, Danzig was determined to continue putting out …

The song Hillbilly Deluxe by Brooks and Dunn reminds me of something sung by at true red neck from the backwoods. It has a certain swinging beat that will drive you to stomp your foot or tap you finger to the restless beat. This type of music has a …

Whenever I hear a Time Again album it reminds me of one of there biggest influences, Rancid as both lead singers have a similar vocal sound. I feel Time Again have the ability of even becoming bigger than there idols.
I’m reviewing Time Agains 1st ep of 6 tracks. Daniel …

Yea! Heavy And A Bottle Of Bread is a song by Bob Dylan And The Band which appears on their album The Basement Tapes. The track starts off with a very simple guitar strumming pattern which is somewhat reminiscent of Dylan’s earlier work but to no major extent once …

Here we have another one of those bands i just don’t get with another album that is so far severely over rated. And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of The Dead have been indie rock darlings for a fair while now and have stood out from the …

Allison Krauss has one of the most amazing voices in country music and this song is just one more proof of that. This is one of my favorite songs by this artist because of the lyrics and the soft but upbeat tune. She proclaims her love for this person …

Off of the new self titled album by Stone Temple Pilots, theres a track that I favor the most on this album. It’s the fifth track of this album called Dare if You Dare. This song is has a moderate tempo feel with a little bit of …

The Greater Good is a song by Nine Inch Nails which appears on their album Year Zero. The song opens up with an eerie synthesizer part along with an electronic drum rhythm which gives the song that very dark industrial atmosphere characteristic to Nine Inch Nails. Thus far everything …

I am not sure how many of you are familiar with the the song “Satisfaction” by Benny Benassi. But the connection it has with the song I am writing about is the background music!
I first heard Move Shake Drop by Pitbull feat. DJ Laz and Flo Rida on television. …

I have to admit that Cyanide is one track from Death Magnetic which I’ve had quite an interesting relationship with. For those of you who followed Metallica the summer before Death Magnetic was released, you’ll know that they performed this track at Ozzfest live and this was the first …

This little beauty can be your resident musician’s best friend. My husband purchased this for himself recently when he bought a new guitar. At the cost of $185.00 USD, it was still more inexpensive than other ones of the same type.
This pedal does it all! You will have to …

I can only say one thing. Amazing! This CD has broken new ground for the band. I think it’s a masterpiece. When I first heard that Anberlin was switching record companies, I was kind of disappointed. I thought that they would be rushed to release a CD for …

‘It’s Me Again Margret’ is another one of Ray Stevens many greatest hits. I sometimes wonder how he comes up with so many great songs. This song though is about a very important issue in our society. It makes it out to be funny but stocking can be …

If there’s a popstar that I believe could make a hit after hit without tiring the general audience, I will probably say it is Katy Perry. Her presence in the music industry is pretty much felt in the span of almost a decade, (gosh it makes me feel old) …

The Best Damn Thing by Avril Lavinge is about how this girl believes she is the best damn thing a guy has ever seen. IT talks about how the guy makes her look bad some times but I don’t think she understands that guys do not try to make …

Untitled is a song by Animal Collective which is the third track on their debut record Spirit They’ve Gone, Spirit They’ve Vanished. Opening up with a mess of instruments, the song is characterized by a very hectic and even dissonant tone in my opinion. The noise that was present …

Dilemma by Nelly and Kelly Rowland is about how much Nelly likes Kelly. This song is a love song if I have never even heard it and just read reviews about it I would figure that much out. This song is an awesome song in my book but that�s …

If you spent some time wondering where the heck Sylvester went and what happened to him at the end of Episode 13, you will now get your answer. Apparently, he met up with Cathy at a restaurant to discuss how he …

Nickelback makes great music. The sound is awesome and I really enjoy listening to their sound. I love the drums that are played in most of their songs. The music that flows from Nickelback’s band is nothing short of great. Nickelback rarely makes bad music and they haven’t made bad …

Def Leppard are one of Britain’s most successful rock bands. They were one of the pioneers of the 80s hard rock sound, achieving massive, million selling success in the 1980s. In the 1990s, their music was no longer fashionable and their career took a slump. They changed their sound …

“Dirt Off Your Shoulder”
The Black Album
Roc-A-Fella Records

“Dirt Off Your Shoulder” is the second single and music video from Jay-Z’s eighth (and purposed final) album, following “Change Clothes”. It looks like a lot of people may have agreed with me regarding his previous music video, because now Jay-Z …

The progressive rock band Dream Theater, known for their long, winding, and technically complex music, also has a penchant for equally lengthy and densely packed live-concert DVDs; the recent “Chaos In Motion” is no exception.
Disk 1 an immense collection of 180 minutes worth of live concert footage, …

“Jerry Was a Race Car Driver” happens to be one of the more popular Primus songs. This song shows up on their 1991 album “Sailing the Seas of Cheese” as track number 5. Although it isn’t technically Primus first single ever (that goes to their song John the Fisherman) …

Blowin’ In The Wind, one of Bob Dylan’s most famous and ionic songs throughout his extremely lengthy career proves to certainly meet it’s reputation as the track itself is just great. As with most early Bob Dylan, or rather most Bob Dylan for that matter, the track isn’t driven …

Hung Overture is a song by Sledding With Tigers and appears as the fifth track on the band’s second album, The Hill Sheep. In the previous track on the record, Ten Fourty-Five, I noted that there were several sections where the instruments were actually completely empty from the track …

As Rush went into the 80’s their sounded changed a quite bit since they started out in the 1980’s. One of the songs they are most known for is the instrumental YYZ off the Moving Pictures album. The song has a really odd timing at the intro but it’t …

Highway Song is a song by System Of A Down which appears on their third album, Steal This Album. The track opens up with a medium paced tempo, but very aggressive and heavy guitar work from Daron Malakian. Abruptly, the track transitions into a much more melodic section where …

One of the things I bought online for my band awhile back is the PG24 wireless microphone by Shure. Since Im a guitarist, a very big part of the band is singing back up vocals and being able to sing harmonies with power and more volume I needed a …

I have to just start this by saying that Wherever I May Roam has to be a perfect description for Metallica during the release of The Black Album. I’m aware Metallica went on a huge tour in promotion of this record, due to how well it sold, and Wherever …

Boa is my favorite Korean singer; I admire her since she was 16 years old (about 7 years ago?). She began her first debut at 13 and then tried to spread into Japanese songs too. Actually, her voice is average, but I think she has a high range and …

I had the utmost pleasure of being able to see Black Label Society LIVE in concert supporting Ozzy Osbourne on July 6th 2007 at the National Indoor Arena in Birmingham England. They were simply amazing combining powerful heavy metal riffs with amazing and unique vocalization for every song, each …

Overview —“ Sweet Children, Green Day’s third EP, is surprisingly what I would consider their worst release yet. I figured that since it was released later than either of their first EPs, 1,000 Hours or Slappy, the songwriting would’ve improved and everything like that but this wasn’t the case …

James Blunt’s song, You’re Beautiful is a lovely song about a man who sees a woman and falls for her. You’re Beautiful is rather fatalistic in that from the beginning, the man declares that he will never be with the girl, so he knows that a relationship will never …
